The 30-Day Harry Potter Challenge


So I’m not doing this over 30 days, because I don’t have the discipline for that.  But… I do want to share my answers to this poll.  So, let’s rename this post “The 30 HP Qs Challenge.” J

1.    Your Fave Book: I love the whole series, I can’t pick just one.  But my ‘faves’ are 3, 5, 6, and 7
2.    Your Fave Movie:  This is another situation where I can’t pick just one, but my favorite movies are the 4 later David Yates directed ones.  I just love his directing style and the overall look that he brought to the films.
3.    Is there any of the film adaptations that have made you angry because they’ve ignored important parts of the book? My least favorite movie is the fourth one because of the way certain characters came across and how certain details were left out.  I think if some things were included differently I would like it more.
4.    Least fave female character and why: Probably Umbridge just because of how cruel and unreasonable and just plain awful she is. 
5.    Fave male character and why: Sirius Black because of his wit, charm, and I also love the relationship that he had with Harry.  I completely hate the fact that he died, but I also think that it made Harry a stronger person.
6.    What house would you want to be in: Now that Pottermore has launched, and luckily I was a Beta user (got in Day 3!!!), the sorting said that I belong in Ravenclaw.  At first I was a bit surprised because all of the other quizzes I’ve taken have said I’m a Gryffindor, but I love being an Eagle.  I love the qualities that come with that house, and I feel like they fit me so well.
7.    Fave female character and why: I love Hermione because of her boldness and intellect in the later books and how she is willing to stick her neck out for her best friends.  But I also love both Tonks and Luna for their personalities.
8.    What do you think would be your fave lesson: Charms
9.    Least fave male character: Dumbledore because although he did it to try and protect Harry, I just can’t forgive him for the role that he played in Sirius’ death.  And Snape, because even though we find out that he is a good guy in the end, I just don’t find him to be a likeable character, and I also find his obsession/love for Lily to be a bit creepy.  But apparently this is just me because I have yet to find anyone who agrees with me on either character.
10.Horcruxes or Hallows? Both!
11.What character would you say you are most like: If I had to pick, I would say I’m most like…Luna?  I’m kind of quirky… I’m not quite sure. 
12.Fave ship: Ron/Hermione
13.Least fave movie: Goblet of Fire
14.Team Voldemort or Team Harry? I don’t understand why this is even a queston.  TEAM HARRY!!!!!!
15.Who would be your best friends at Hogwarts (3 only)? I would hope that my friends would be Hermione, Luna, and Fred/George. (Yea I kind of cheated there at the end but I sat and stared at that question for probably 10 minutes)
16.Fave professor: Lupin, McGonagall, Flitwick
17.Are you excited about movie 7? Well it’s been out for a while now, but I was so excited!  Especially since I was in London studying abroad during the red carpet premiere so I got to be in Trafalgar Square to see the red carpet stuff for the final movie.  I was so overwhelmed by the end of the series!
18.Least fave book: Goblet of Fire
19.Do you prefer the books or films? I love both the books and the films.  There are parts of the books that I like better than the films and parts of the films that I like better than the books.
20.If you had to meet one member of the cast, who would it be? It’s a toss up between Daniel Radcliffe and Emma Watson.  I admire them both so much, not only because they were in the series, but because of the people they grew up to be.
21.Out of all the characters that died, if you could bring one back, who would it be? Sirius Black without a doubt.
22.Harry Potter or Twilight? Harry Potter.
23.Any part of the books/movies that makes you cry?
24.Any particular scene you wished would have been put in the movie but it wasn’t? The first one that comes to mind is I wish that in the 6th movie they included the shot of the diadem in the Room of Requirement.
25.Nineteen years later.  Are you happy how it turned out, or do you wish something was different? I know a lot of people don’t like this, but I really like it.  If I was able to change anything about it, I would change the names of Harry’s kids, because I find them a bit over the top, and I would make Neville and Luna a married couple.
26.If you could be able to work one spell without a wand what would it be? That’s a tough one… perhaps summoning.  I’m very lazy…
27.Would you rather own the Invisibility Cloak, The Resurrection Stone, or the Elder Wand?  Invisibility Cloak
28.Do you listen to Wizard Wrock? YES!!! I absolutely love Wrock bands!
29.Did you enjoy A Very Potter Musical? I’ve never seen it, even though so many people have recommended it to me, being the HP obsessed person that I am. 
30.What affect has Harry Potter made on your life and how much does it mean to you? Harry Potter has been such a huge part of my childhood.  Harry Potter pretty much got me through my middle school and high school years, and now that I am an adult and almost through my college years, Harry Potter has come to an end.  This only begins to describe hoe much it means to me.

And now I tag YOU.  I want to hear what you guys think!  What are your answers to the 30 Harry Potter questions???  Leave your answers in the comments below!
